Do you have any other options for connection to the printer? (like network cable or regular printer cable?)

Reason I ask, I have had printers that "lock out" a USB port. Printing through a different connection will sometimes clear it, that is, if it will print at all.Is it connected by USB?

of the advanced product features are not available. But you can still
print, scan, and import and view images on a memory card, using the
workaround procedures in this document.
Use
the following instructions to install the basic driver in Windows
Vista, and then review the workaround procedures to use the available
features for your product.
Installing the printer driver
When
you connect the product to the computer, Windows Vista detects the
hardware and automatically installs the correct driver. A notification
lets you know when installation begins and when it is complete. You do not
have to download any software or insert the product CD.

Turn the product on.

Do you have other printer drivers installed, if so thre may be a driver conflict. wireless printing requires network connection and also printer drivers. This appears to be a driver issue since the printer shows up on the network. I would try reinstalling the drivers.

Check that is defined as default printer in 'installed printer' in Windows, and that you are not sending documents in printout to another non connected printer present in Windows under 'installed printers'.

Unplug completely computer from power socket and from USB for 10
minutes, to get rid of electrostatic problems on USB. Plug everything
back and restart.

Check the USB cable, replace USB cable with a different one to check if it was the cable.

Uninstall printer from 'installed printers' in Windows (delete). Disconnect printer from USB, reinstall printer from printer software CD or downloaded driver. Connect printer to usb only after installing, or when explicitly required by software, this is important

Hope this helps. Install the nearest series printer driver it maybe available with Vista (DX8000 series). Other option I used to deal with my client with hard to find drivers, I used printer driver emulation. Hope you still have the manual to check with the printer drivers emulation. Last resort, is to find nearest Epson national distributor or Authorized Service Center. There might however extra fee if needed for the CD copy.
